About 9a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Benfleet (SS7 1DE). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 40 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (40–140 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 27 units on file. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (95 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
